I came across the concept of topology of time and causality in Reichenbach book, "Philosophy of Space and Time". It would be nice to have list of references of recent developments of the same. It could be textbooks, research papers or published articles.

One nice book about the meaning of time from a physicist's point of view is Sean Carroll's From Eternity to Here: The Quest for the Ultimate Theory of Time. It discusses almost every concievable angle of the physical and philosophical meaning of time, including why it seems to "flow" forward, whether it flows the same everywhere, whether there is one flow of time or a multiverse of different options, whether you could have a "loop" of time instead of a straight line, and a lot more.
